State Police Athol Barracks

Parking is available for barracks guests.

The Athol Barracks, designated as "C-1," was built in 1934 and sits astride what was once Route 2 (now Route 2A). Situated just above Downtown Athol, the Barracks then provided full-time policing for many of the communities in its station area. Now, the Athol Barracks provide a rapid and reliable source of additional workforce for larger communities and is the area's hub for utilizing many other specialized State Police resources. Over the years the number of municipalities serviced by the Athol Barracks has changed, but today 15 cities and towns rely on SP Athol, creating the largest geographic State Police station area in the Commonwealth.

There are several rural state highways that fall under our jurisdiction. These include Route 2, SP Athol's primary responsibility, and the "Mohawk Trail."
